Lately, I have noticed in most crypto groups I'm in, many crypto enthusiasts are increasingly participating in airdrops and crypto events organized by exchanges or project developers to earn USDT or tokens. Is it because these "people" are afraid to trade or they do not believe they can make money from trading? Don't get me wrong, I understand that this can also generate passive income, but what I'm curious about is whether these activities truly yield significant profits or not.
Where do you get this data from and actually people only take advantage of participating in airdrops just to make a profit, but that's not the main target. Trading is not easy to learn so people will think long and hard about getting involved in it, when people are not able to improve their trading skills to become better then the results will make them lose. Experienced traders who have good skills when trading also often experience losses, but the difference is that they can recover losses in the next trade.
Of course people will look at their own abilities and if trading is not something they can do, they should leave. This fear is normal, but we also have to measure ourselves whether we are suitable for trading or not. Because if this is not suitable, it is better to choose an investment route so that people will not suffer big losses.
